Perkins Coie Named One of 2021's Best Workplaces for Parents™ by Great Place to Work®

SEATTLE (December 2, 2021)—Perkins Coie is pleased to announce that it has been named as one of the 2021 Best Workplaces for Parents™ by research and consulting firm Great Place to Work®.

"Perkins Coie strives to maintain a healthy work-life balance for all our employees and prioritizes providing a supportive and understanding culture for our working parents," said Perkins Coie's chief talent officer. "Over the past year, we kept the extended benefits we implemented during the pandemic in place and continued to support our working parents to the best of our ability."

"As co-chair of the Parents & Caregivers Resource Group, I'm grateful that Perkins Coie listened to the needs of its many working parents and made a significant effort to support them during such a difficult time," said David Fentin, co-chair of the Parents & Caregivers Resource Group. "Working parents and caregivers juggle many daily challenges at the best of times, and having workplace flexibility and support can make a world of difference."

The rankings were based on survey feedback from both parents and non-parents representing more than six million U.S. employees during 2021. Survey participants provided insights about how their employers' values and support helped them experience trust and reach full potential at work, while taking into account the benefits and parental leave policies provided by their employers.

Perkins Coie ranked as the #1 U.S. employer among the 2021 "Best Workplaces in Consulting & Professional Services" by Great Place to Work® and was named to the 2021 Fortune "100 Best Companies to Work For®" list for the 19th consecutive year, ranking at #23. The firm was also recently named one of the 2021 "Best Law Firms for Women" by Seramount, which was formerly Working Mother Media, and has earned the Human Rights Campaign Foundation's top rating of 100% in the Corporate Equality Index, a national benchmarking survey on corporate policies and practices related to LGBTQ workplace equality, for 13 years.
